I suppose so -- but what's the point? If you want to have a program run only with a python install like yours, you don't need py2app...

It's still unclear to me what py2app is expected to be able to do with Apple's Python. but in practice, we generally use it with the python.org installer, as that gets you a fully independent app bundle.

In theory, you can build an app this way on 10.6, and it can run on 10.3.9 and above.

In practice, all your user-installed packages have to be built for 10.3.9 and above, too, and that is a bit tricky. However, most folks building binaries are trying to support that, so it certainly can work.

I don't know bout QT, though -- I don't use it.

If you want to continue with Apple's python, you might try:

1) adding the extra stuff in as required packages in your setup.py

or

2) writing some post-flight code into your setup.py that copies what you need into the app bundle --it's just a well-structured directory, after all.

good luck!
